Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Despite the blocky visuals, there’s a satisfying sense of progression as a desolate structure gradually becomes a well-defended home.
33 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
Cool pvp survival game.
24 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
That Borderlands 4 and Hogwarts legacy can run on lesser hardware but with superior performance and visuals than on a 3090 or 4090/5090 out of the box is just proof that this game engine is not fun to actually tweak.
19 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
Making and decorating a base becomes a big vibe of coop play.
17 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
(-)Putting this in parentheses because I am uncertain of how I feel about it, but finding certain food items and weapons that are of the stronger side feels a bit too easy, I don't personally mind because I like things on the easy side, but for some it can feel a bit redundant using the same gear you get in the start throughout the game

Servers and matchmaking
Players who bring up Servers and matchmaking mostly praise it.
The ability to host you're own server, this is amazing, it even has a whitelist function like Minecraft, downside is that this also hides your server which some do not like, maybe a password system could be implemented at some point?
